FRESNO COUNTY, Calif. & VENTURA COUNTY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Biodico Inc. will welcome clean energy entrepreneurs to its Zero Net
Energy Farm in California’s San Joaquin Valley on Wednesday, Nov. 9 as
part of outreach efforts to drive innovation in a state where Governor
Jerry Brown recently passed landmark climate legislation.

Biodico was awarded a $1.2 million grant by the California Energy
Commission to develop its “Zero Net Energy Farm,” which would enable
farms to generate all electrical and heating power needs from on-site
renewable resources, while reducing greenhouse gas footprints.

“The time is now for clean energy entrepreneurs to band together and
help each other drive innovation in a state that is serving as an
example for the rest of the nation in developing technology that is good
for the economy, environment and local communities,” said Biodico
President and Founder Russ Teall. “The San Joaquin Valley is suffering
from high levels of air pollution and soaring unemployment rates, so it
is an ideal region to create practical clean energy solutions that can
be replicated elsewhere.”

The tour of Biodico’s Zero Net Energy facility will consist of members
of the San Joaquin Valley Clean Energy Cluster, which is affiliated with
California State University, Fresno.

Following the tour, Biodico will host a conference call to discuss its
Zero Net Energy Farm. The public is welcome to listen to the call by
dialing +1 (408) 650-3123 and access code 671-089-533. Listeners are

50 lines will be able to join the call.
